[quote=Anonymous]On the “it’s not efficient”…. So I taught my 9 year olds how to do their laundry bc during Covid (first months) their school did not give them new assignments on Fridays. They were supposed to wrap up any undone work and find a way to help around the home. We live in DC and have a small’ish stackable washer and dryer. So they got in a really good routine of sorting the own laundry and doing 2 loads. Flash forward and our washer busted in dramatic fashion involving a flood from the 2nd floor to the basement! The replacement washer we got was much larger somehow (still fit in our little laundry closet) and I could not justify the tiny separate loads and kind of took on everyone’ s laundry again. until last year when I started working more and just couldn’t keep up with them. By now, they have enough for sizable loads themselves - between school and sports clothes and the fact that they are now adult sized, they have two full loads when they choose to do laundry. Occasionally my daughter will need to do a smaller load and ask if I have like colors so we share a load. [/quote]
